If you absolutely, positively have to do this, there is a sample in my
WDM book that will do it. I think it's mostly a curiosity, though. I
simply use a tiny header named version.h with #define symbols name
VERMAJOR, VERMINOR, and BUILD. I build the version resource using that
header, and I also use it in selected parts of the driver code. I can't
really imagine why anything more complicated would be useful.
